A container is equipped with a thermoelectric cooling device powered by a reserve battery which may be placed in a cavity within the container. An extension of the cold zone of the Peltier cooling device projects into the container in such a manner as to distribute the cooling surface to effect more rapid cooling of the contents. A heat exchanger is provided to carry away both the heat generated in the Peltier device and the heat generated by the internal resistance of the reserve battery during discharge. Provision is made to prevent heat carried by the battery terminals from entering the cooling compartment.
